Fat cat has fallen asleep on my lap and I can't possibly move him just to go do the school run, can I? I'm sure the kids will understand.

And I dislike this cat, btw, though he's a pure lap junkie the moment it lands. Brought fleas into the house, regularly scratches people, Batters doors to get them open or just to remind me its breakfast time, Fat Plonker, fights with other cats.
The children adore him, of course.

I think that is fair enough,tbh. It's a pity about your dc but the cat cannot be moved

He sounds fabulous!

I miss having a cat. My dad had two brothers who were so different it was frightening. Both ace hunters and fairly large. One alpha make who took no shit and swiped you of you went for any more than a brief scratch under his chin.

The other was like a 4 month old baby, he would whine and cry and purr non stop and, like yours, would plant himself on your knee until he decided to move.

Both of my dads passed away in last 2 years, enjoy him. Pita cats are the best!

Make the DC walk. It's only fitting.

You don't dislike the cat - you luffs him really, even if he is a massive pain in the arse and you know that you shouldn't like him.

He's a good lap warmer, I'll give him that. Puts a slanket to shame.

I think I just have immense pity for his exalted numptiness.

When I was young [old gimmer emoticon] one of DM's rules was that he or she who had the cat on their lap was excused duties for the duration. I have attempted to follow this rule with my own family ever since.

I'm guessing the cat likes your lap best, Silvery?

Sadly, not always, and depends what the options are! If DS or DD visit, they take precedence, but after all it is the prerogative of a Queen to choose who she will honour.
